Domestic Life in Japan.

Generally speaking, the japanese men
make kind and affectionate husbands, and
the women make yirtuous and exemplary
wives and mothers; and the children are
certainly the happieSt little imps in the
world /; their parents fondle and spoil them
most effectually, and at the same time
never lose their control over them. The
non-irritating nature of the native diet
has nf.ich to do with such serene nerves
and tenn peraments. One never sees a
child whipped in Japan; reproyins

WHY THE Crow Is BLAcK.-The In
dians of the extreme Northwest had some
very remarkable legends about the crea-
alton, in which the crow takes the leading
part, bringing order out of chaos Per-
haps the most curious was that which ac.
counted for the raven coat of the crow.
One night, while making tour through
his dominions, he stopped at the house of
Can-nook, chief, and begged for lodgings
and drink of water Can-nook offered
him a bed, but on account of the scarcity
of water, refused to give him anything to
drink. When all the rest were asleep the
crow got up to hunt for the water-butt, but
was heard by Can-nook's wife, who aroused
her husband. He, thinking that the crow
was about to escape, piled logs of gum-wood
upon the fire. The crow made desperate
efforts to fly through the hole in the roof
where the smoke escaped, but Can-nook
caused the smoke to be denser and denser.
and when the crow finally regained the
outer air he had black plumage. 1t was
previously white.--4merican Magazine.

From the Arkansaw Traveller.
The legislature is again in session.
1t seems but yesterday that q man
who is now out hunting wild hogs
came down with an heraldic blast,
giving promise of becoming a great
statesman. He was the silvery-.
tongued orator of Postum Walk and
worse ruffies on his shirt. His SLOUGH
hat covered massive brow and with
elviable aim he spat through his
teeth at q sunbeam fitting on the
floor of the house. He made great
speech, elaborate of design and
violent of execution, but when some
old and unassuming man arose and IN
a gentle manner proved that the
youngster was fool, the bottom fell
from the well-bucket of hope. During
the rest of the session, the spouting
statesman kept his seat and now the
glance of his keen eye is directed,
not at flaws In the constitution, but
at bed of dry leaves. where wild
hog lay the night before. D, young
legislator, pride of a backwoOds COM
munity, do not attempt to grab fame
by the throat, and, with a mighty
effort, lift her from her pedestal and
carry her off under one arm. You
may eat your beefsteak with vigor
and drink your coffee with an echoing
sip, but do not attempt to run the
machinery of the state. Old so-and-
so NAV not be so we'll educated as
Y, are, but he has more experience,
without which education is mere
plavthing, painted and frail.

A Fatal Cave In.

Kansas City, Jan. 2l.-An accident by
which one man was instantly killed and
two Others narrowly escaped with their
lives, occurred this morning about $50
O'Clock in the eastern wing of Helms new
brewery in the east bottoms. A large num-
Der of men, including laborers, stOnema-
ons, bricklsyers and carpenters are EN-
ployed in the interior Of
the large building making Improvements.
In the eastern part of the structure some
seven or eight men were employed in dig
g;ng a vat. The vat is about 12xl2 feet
and seven feet deep. The surface there Is
not at all solid and very sandy. John
Weis, Z. Dietrich and Fritz Hindermaer,
stonemasOns were building a wall around
the vat and bink If earth supported by
wooden posts protruded above their heads.
Suddenly the bank fell and Weis who
was stopping at the time was buried
under It, The other two were caught IN
the debris from the waists down but their
agonizIng shouts quickly brought other
men to the scene who extricated them and
commenced looking for Weis. In about five
minutes after the bank fell his body was
recovered from under about three feet OF
earth. 1t was readily seen that life was ex-
tinct Strange to say hat DIETRICH
nor Hindermaer were injured althoug On
badly scared. DIETRICH resides in the east
bottoms near the distillery and Hinda-
maer lives on Rochester avenue in the
same locality. Both are Germans and
could scarcely relate in Euglish what they
saw of the accident. They were the only
witnesses of the unfortunate affair and
their stories are in effect as given above.
